first embodiment
The First Embodiment
[0033]FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a fuel cell system 1 of the first embodiment of the present invention. The fuel cell system 1 includes a fuel cell 10 that generates electric power by reacting hydrogen gas and air (oxidant gas) as reactant gas; a supply device 20 that supplies the hydrogen gas and the air to the fuel cell 10; a battery 11 as a storage means that can store the electric power; and a control device 30 that controls the fuel cell 10, the supply device 20 and the battery 11. Among these, the battery 11 and the fuel cell 10 are connected to a drive motor 12 that drives the fuel cell electric vehicle.
[0034]The fuel cell 10 generates electric power by the electrochemical reaction when the hydrogen gas is supplied to the anode (positive electrode) and the air, which includes oxygen, is supplied to the cathode (negative electrode).
[0035]The fuel cell 10 is connected to the battery 11 via a current limiter 13 and the drive motor 12. In addition, in the...
second embodiment
The Second Embodiment
[0063]In this embodiment, the configuration of the voltage lower limit calculation portion 31, the current upper limit calculation portion 32 and the current limiting portion 33 are different from those of the first embodiment. Specifically, in the first embodiment, the voltage lower limit is used as the threshold value in the current limiting portion 33, but in the second embodiment, the current upper limit is used as the threshold value in the current limiting portion 33.
[0064]More specifically, in the first embodiment, the voltage lower limit is calculated as the voltage threshold by the voltage lower limit calculation portion 31. Then, the current upper limit calculation portion 32 calculates the current upper limit based on the voltage lower limit that is calculated by the voltage lower limit calculation portion 31. Next, the current limiting portion 33 limits the output current to be lower than the current upper limit in order to keep the lowest cell volta...
